mocking and quoting bigots I've seen so far
:liberalism: turns to 
"you know it's hexbear when the tankie pronoun parade shows up to force pictures of pigshit in front of you!"* real quick
[*this is paraphrased, I can't remember the exact original quote]
Or "so suddenly I'm Hitler because i think people calling themselves Fae gender is dumb"
Or "why should i need to learn a new set of different pronouns for every person I meet?" (this followed two comments after "I'm literally not a transphobe, I work with plenty of trans colleagues who feel safe around me" (average lib being scratched in real time by having to acknowledge neopronouns))
.
All of these shitheads claimed to be allies when they started interacting but our brilliant pronoun tags immediately made them out themselves as the bigots they are who only pretend to be allies because it looks bad to be openly and proudly transphobic
TL;DR: 
Honestly seeing how dumb these takes are and realizing how aggressively I was willing to stand up for neopronoun users gave me the confidence to start using them myself, I've always kind of liked fae/faer but I kinda had that "All neopronoun users are valid except me" mentality going on.
My actual pronouns are opsec but I'll be damned if other people don't get to use the pronouns they choose
I use fae faer as opsec pronouns becuz they are sick
Only shitbird types like that, gottem
